is it possible import the variable ?
Hi All,

I need to hold one variable in another script.

I mean, i will be running 1st script say ScriptA which should import one variable from another script say ScriptB.
I will be incrementing the variable everyday in ScriptA and want to place it in ScriptB.The next day i should get the incremented value from ScriptB.

Is it possible to do?
Can anybody join your hand with me?

Thanks and Regards,
Vinay

I am not very clear....
Anyway this might be useful

#!/bin/ksh
echo "Enter the value : "
read a
echo $a > scriptB

You can save the output of the scriptA in to a file, and read the same in scriptB. Ofcourse this is not a feasible solution as someone can change or delete the content of this file at any time.
